During the last few years, condU tiona in all lines of business, even professional life, have changed so completely that every man is waking up to the fact that in order to win success he must specialize and learn to do some one thing and do it well. So it is with any article that is sold to the people. It must have genuine merit or no amount of advertising will maintain the demand for the article. For many years the druggists have watched with much interest the remarkable record maintained by Dr. Kilmer's' Swamp-Root, the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy. From the very beginning, the proprietors had so much confidence in it that they invited every one to test it. It Is a physician's prescription.

PLANS TO INSTALL CHEMISTRY COURSE

Arrangements are being made by the, Richmond high school officials for the installation of a chemistry course in connection with the domestic science work. This course in all probability will be worked out by the fall term of next year. As the course is a new one in school curriculum there have been no textbooks compiled which would be suitable for classes hence an extensive investigation must be carried on before the permanent course may be decided on. The new course when established will be required of all domestic science students before graduation.

There is a current rumor in Washington society circles here, that John Barrett, director of the Bureau of American Republics and formerly a reporter on the Portland (Ore.) Telegram will soon marry the widow of Thomas F. Walsh, the millionaire. Colorado mine owner. Mrs. Walsh is at present making a tour of the Panama Canal with Secretary of War Garrison's party, while Mr. Barrett is with President Wilson on his southern trip.

ACKERMAN PROMOTED TO HEAD OF BUREAU

So fundamental is the upbuilding of rural life, in the opinion of Dr. P. P. Claxton, United States Commissioner of Education, that the observance in the schools of one day eaeh year as Agriculture and Rural Life Daw"

should become a national custom

stead of being confined to a few j states, as at present. "We can do with- j out some of our anniversaries, if med j be," says Dr. Claxton, "to have time j for this, the most fundamental of all. The children in our schools should t given an opportunity to pause in their I regular work and consider the sig- ' nificance of agriculture ad rural life; j the worth and worthiness of tillage of the soil: and the beauty and glory of simple and sace life in the open country " Dr. Claxton points out that in several states "Agriculture and Rural Life Day" has already been introduced into thr" schools, at the suggestion

of the Bureau of Education. In othr states exercises appropriate to the purpose are held in connection with , Arbor Day. Thanksgiving Day, or the ; Harvest Home celebration. In order to aid in the proper observance of the j day, under whatever name it may be 1 celebrated, the Bureau of Education has just issued a bulletin containing 1 material that can be used by teachers and others in arranging an interi esting program. Fittingly prefaced with the "County i Boy's Creed." the bulletin includes I sections on man's struggle for food; ! the application of science to agriculjture; men. influential in improving agi riculture from George Washington j down throught Luther Burbank, LibJerty H. Bailey, and other present-day men; our domestic animals; and a

study of forests. How vegetables have been used as medicines among different peoples; bread-making through the ages; the mysteries of Mother Earth: the origin of food plants; co-operation among farmers; wonders of a single acre these and other topics treated with special reference to glorifying country life. Following each discussion there is a list of suitable poems and songs on farming and farm life. "What we have tried to do." said Dr. Claxton yesterday, "is to get together in convenient form material that will help in the movement for appreciation of the true value and beauty of farm life among all classes of our

population. The vn1r observance of Agriculture and Rural Life D.y. both in city and country m hools. v. ill c;o the coming ger.eratuui a t'.earer insight than the past h.cs hai into the
